Definitions

  • This invention relates to a sample cell to be used in, e.g. flourescent X-ray analytical devices.
  • sample cell With regard to such kind of sample cell, it has been used repeatedly by performing cleaning every time when a prescribed analytical operation has been finished as customary practice. Although this is due to such a reason that sample cell is comparatively expensive, such cleaning operation was troublesome since it requires considerable labor and also it contaminated hand or clothes, etc. Further, there was such defects that its construction being complex and higher cost, and also its assembling and disassembling require much labor.
  • This invention resolves above-mentioned defects in customary device by making its one part a discarding member, and its object is to provide a device of which handling becomes extremely simple and low cost in spite of discarding type, and also it has superior function as sample cell.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view at disassembled state.
  • FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section at assembled state.
  • FIG. 3 is a longitudinal section at assembled state.
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a state under disassembling of device.
  • uprising part 7 and turndown part 8 space A formed by said uprising part 7 and turndown part 8 is made a largeness in which said inner frame 1 being fitted entirely, and connection point 11 between uprising part 7 and turndown part 8 is formed so as to become smooth circular arc shape.
  • 12, 13 is annular projection provided on uprising part 7 and turndown part 8, respectively, and the former forms a standard line when sample being poured.
  • 14 is a radiation-permeable sheet made of, e.g. polyester phthalate
  • 15 is outer frame made of plastic such as polyethylene (it may be made of metal, etc.) formed as substantially circular shape, and annular projections 16, 17 and cavity 18 are provided properly at its lower part and side part.
  • first inner frame 1 is fitted into said space A of inner frame cover 5 so that uprising part 7 and turndown part 8 of inner frame cover 5 covers inner frame 1 as a whole, then liquid sample is poured into space B formed by bottom part 6 and uprising part 7 of inner frame cover 5 up to the neighborhood of said standard line 12, and then radiation-permeable sheets 14 is covered from upper side, and further said outer frame 15 is fitted from upper side.
  • this outer frame 15 is fitted, radiation-permeable sheet 14 is pulled by outer frame 15 and spread without producing any crease, and also it contacts closely with said circular arc shaped connection point 11 so as to prevent sample from leaking out of sample cell.
  • sample cell is charged into fluorescent X-ray analyzing device at upside-down state, and primary X-ray is irradiated from lower side passing through radiation-permeable sheet 14, and fluorescent X-ray as analytic element in sample is excited so as to measure its energy and strength.
  • sample cell is removed from said fluorescent X-ray analyzing device, and e.g. a cylindrical disassembling implement 19 as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 is inserted inside the outer frame 15, and lower end face 20 of this implement 19 is applied to upper end face 21 of inner frame and said circular arc shaped connection point 11 covering this upper end face 21, and outer frame 15, radiation-permeable sheet 14 and inner frame cover 5 are removed from inner frame 1 as shown in FIG.
  • This invention is constituted as described above, and it has effects as follows.
  • discarding member is only inner frame cover and radiation-permeable sheet to which sample is stuck, and these members can be manufactured at low price, while inner frame and outer frame which is comparatively high price can be used repeatedly, according whole cost is low enough in spite of discarding type, and analytic cost can be reduced remarkably as a whole.
  • connection point between uprising part and turnddown part is formed by bending a plastic film.
  • radiation-permeable sheet can be extended at definite tension without producing any creases, since said connection part has no creases and outer frame is fitted from upper side of radiation-permeable sheets, as the result reproductive property is improved.
  • manufacturing cost is low price and also its assembling is easy by its construction and disassembling is easy by the use of, e.g. a cylindrical shaped disassembling implement.
